Genes affected

FBN1 (HGNC:3603): (fibrillin 1) This gene encodes a member of the fibrillin family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate two proteins including the extracellular matrix component fibrillin-1 and the protein hormone asprosin. Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that serves as a structural component of calcium-binding microfibrils. These microfibrils provide force-bearing structural support in elastic and nonelastic connective tissue throughout the body. Asprosin, secreted by white adipose tissue, has been shown to regulate glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Marfan syndrome and the related MASS phenotype, as well as ectopia lentis syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome and neonatal progeroid syndrome.

This sequence change inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 17 of the FBN1 mRNA (c.2028_2029insA), causing a frameshift at codon 677. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala677Serfs*4) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, loss-of-function variants in FBN1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17657824, 19293843). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in FBN1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17657824, 19293843). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with FBN1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406278). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala677Serfs*4) in the FBN1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
